To Do:

On this list you see things that aren't done at the moment, but will be done in the (near) future, and you see the already done things, based on users suggestions.

On one of the next season rollovers

• Apply a new rule to force bot mode for teams causing financial super bankruptcy
• thread 100005686: cause a penalty if managers utilize rosters full of one position, just to support the Out of Position penalty, cause less spectators on games...
• Change the way handling players without contract on roster minimum requirements, for the moment such players stay - in the future they should leave! Just fill the team with low talent

ToDo Playbook Usability

• Different playtypes per Offense entry (thread_id=1197)

To do (absolutely needed)

• Send a welcome message in the new users language, if there is a mentor
• Add another prewarn PM 1 week before the supporter runs out
• Add a warning to the forecast if the actual money is not enough to survive the offseason if there wouldnt be any games sscheduled with income
• Add a participation report for each game and team, to see which players where active during the game
• Language Mods!

• pass depth description odd thread_id=722
• Doublcheck the distance and the relation to "from where the kicker is automatic" on FG
• Keep an eye on the abusive usage of some offenseformations, and change the weight relations if needed

To do (probably important)

• Add the last X posts of the regional forum to the league-page/gamecenter, and crosslink to the forum from the league-page/gamecenter too
• Add user depending timezone settings, and display times in local time, across the game
• On the Draft board the Sortoptions shouldnt overwrite player-locks

• Add Clock management, Fake punts, TPC, Onsidekicks (thread_id=3534)
• Insert passing distances, even on incompletes
• If replying to a forum message, show the whole thread for citates
• Add wage ranges to Transfer Market search
• Option to view the different formations in Playbook
• add kind of a wage forecast to the player details based on training progress
• add a matrix to the manual which formation is good for pass/rush including which defense can handle it good or bad
• FB should have a Pancake chance on Blocking
• Think about better navigation in FAQ and Manual
• Control the Pass receiving for HBs

To do (nice to have)

• check about a watch list for the transfer market, that keeps players on it even the manager has not made any bid on them...should be private to the manager
• Add a lock option to the training page per player, so the optimizer will ignore this player
• Add a "bad throw" summary to QB stats
• TO Diff (100000127)
• Show the player stats for his last games somewhere (thread_id=7215)

• Let the manager remove single entries from the bidlhistory/bidlist (incoming)
• Turn RBs into receivers for some plays
• Check about the amount of injuries, see thread_id=5168

Rough ideas

• Management options (food)
• CHanging moral during the game (thread_id=1046)

Declined for the moment, but nice

• replace TDD with divisional record in the league standings page (thread_id=4170)
• More depth in Playbook bye more than one offense action per entry, based on percentage (thread_id=1119)
• Don't fire players when humans go bot (thread_id=1121)
• Playbook option FB rushing percentage. To setup HB/FB rushing ratio (does not match with the current engine)
• Add Height and Weight to players and give these values some influence in the engine

Declined, because not matching with the game idea behind the scenes
